@monk3synuts Its simple, they'll do what Australia did - they'll simply require you to be a qualified and licenced 'Automotive Technician' to do any work on your vehicle. That way, unless you get the other qualification and then use both to get the licence, you won't be able to do ANY work on your car as you're deemed 'legally incompetent' by simply not being appropriately licenced. Its the same reason Australia recently regulated automotive electrical work - you now need to be qualified and licenced as an 'Automotive Electrician'. They used the excuse of 'safety' to make it law, but really it was to put most people out of work and to stop the restoration and modification of vehicles as its as hard to get qualified as it is to become a normal electrician who can work on houses. Funny how all these licences are automatically given to all the big names (the car manufacturers), but always used to stop the little guy.

Interestingly they're trying to do what Australia does with historic vehicles. Basically a vehicle is only required to follow the safety rules of the year of manufacture. Registration can be either the normal full price, or, it you're a member of a car club you can register it under 'Club Permit'. 'Club Permit' is a different type of number plate, ending in either H (historic) if restored with any modern part (excluding brake pads and tyres), ending in CH (Classic Historic) if restored with all original parts (excluding brake pads and tyres). Generally 'club permit' vehicles can only be driven 45 days each year (some states and territories allow it per vehicle, some only allow it per year for all the ones you own collectively) at your choice, some states and territories only permit such vehicles to be driven on days that your club gets an 'event permit' and then only as part of a club activity (Queensland does this). Sadly, this all doesn't surprise me because its the standard move towards getting rid of ICE vehicles except for the ones that are drained of fluids (sometimes without engines) that sit in museum exhibits. That's also why they make it so hard to run a museum - huge bonds, insane hoops to jump through, the requirement for the main museums and govt to approve each application for 'registration as a museum', etc. All designed to stop all new museums, no matter how legitimate you're willing to run your museum. Commonly such restrictions are used because the government want to effectively 'outlaw' certain things - commonly seen with flare guns. Flare guns were never used in crime but both the anti-gun IMO and 'western' govts demonized them, had the IMO remove them from being part of SOLAS equipment and then bans in most countries came along. Ironically the current parachute flares aren't anywhere near as good as the old flare gun flares and they don't fly as high (height = more time to light the sky) so they don't last as long, nor can they be seen from as far. Many flare gun museums that had been perfectly fine for many decades suddenly had to surrender their collections for destruction unless they were able to sell them to either of the three states that still accept flare guns as a safety signally device exempt from the firearms act within 3 days of the law change (there was no public warning, only those who new either politicians or police get personal 'heads up' on the bans). The result was public safety wasn't improved, museums that were never a problem were removed and many old 1800's French flare guns were destroyed by the govt in the name of 'public safety'. Now they're trying the same with ICE vehicles. This is pure BS that needs to be stopped.

@DavidStevenson-gw2eo In Victoria, Australia the councils have recently (since the 4 bin system started) hired teams of 'bin police' who go through your bins once a month to police that you're using them properly. If they find something wrong the bin doesn't get emptied until you correct it, and if you get caught twice in a row they fine you $600. Thing is - the councils tell people "if you can't fit something in your bin, put it in someone elses bin once they're put out for collection", so there's no way to know if the offending item was put in by someone else, if the bin police are framing you, etc.

Because people comply, quite often voluntarily (i.e. before it becomes laws). I know people hate talking about firearms but that's where it started - they slowly brought in restrictions that they knew the majority wouldn't care about. This conditioned people that 'bans are good', then they kept banning things. Now its seen as normal to ban everything and basically no one ever objects, so the govt keep doing it. Its the same in all of CANZUK & CUNA.

The govt want that. Its all by design. If you're on welfare from the state, you can be forced into CBDC and thus easily controlled. Look at the plandemic - there were very few of us who had enough savings (and supplies of shelf-stable food) to reject all the jabs and demands from the govt, to go without work for the 3yrs of lockdowns and literally wait them out. The ones that couldn't had no choice but to comply as that was required to continue working and to receive 'welfare'. That's why Australiastan (specifically the state of Danistan - also known as Victoria under Dictator Dan) had such compliance.

@DavidStevenson-gw2eo I fail to see how that would work given that if you run ANY IOT devices, they should be on one of two IOT networks in your house. IOT with internet - for the few IOT devices that actually need internet access IOT without internet - for 99% of IOT devices, especially those that don't get security updates Then you should have your Private network for all your personal devices (phone, laptop, computer, network printer (enterprise laser printer that still gets updates, otherwise put it on an IOT network), etc. You should have the relevant firewall rules to only 'Allow Established and Related' from IOT to Private, to only 'Allow new from Private to IOT' and to 'Drop all from IOT to Private'. The rules need to be in that order as firewall rules work in the order they appear. My point is, if your networks / VLANS are setup properly, 99% of IOT devices will NEVER be on the internet, so how will they know who's doing or using what?
